In the colony, Teague commenced a relationship with Mary Wade (Convict, Lady Juliana, 1790), whilst they were both on Norfolk Island C1792. They did have possibly 4 children but the actual parentage of some of these is in doubt. Edward joined the Brigantine "Fox" and went whaling in 1806. By 1806, Mary had started a relationship with Jonathan Brooker (Convict, Atlantic 1791). There are at least 6 children to this relationship too. The ages of the children and their respective surnames does cause confusion. It would appear that whilst Teague was away whaling, Mary may have initially lived with Jonathan and then this arrangement became more permanent.
Teague Harrigan came to England from Cork, Ireland. He was tried on the charge of stealing clothing to the value of 20 shillings and was sentenced to transportation for 7 years. He was embarked on the ship "Salamander" which sailed from Plymouth with 160 male convicts 27 Mar 1791 arriving Port Jackson 21 Aug 1791. The "Salamander" was sent to Norfolk Island arriving there 4 Sep 1791.
